Methylprylon is a sedative pyrazolone derivative that was primarily used as a tranquilizer and sleep aid. It acts by modulating the GABA-A receptor and leads to central nervous system depression. Due to its potential for dependence and toxic effects, it has been withdrawn from the market in many countries. The substance can lead to severe side effects in case of overdose.
